Hello !

Looking to try tflite on node but can't manage to install it, do you have any highlight on this issue ? Thanks!

Thanks for the bug report. That error message is not very clear, but it's appearing because x86-64 Mac is not supported yet (so the compiler is missing the -fexceptions flag). I'll look into adding support for that platform later today. However, it's unfortunately not as simple as adding a config to the binding.gyp file since TFLite also needs to be compiled for x86 Mac (see the cc_deps folder). If you don't want to wait, you should be able to use it from Docker or a Linux virtual machine.

The package should also show a more obvious error message on unsupported platforms, so I'll look into that as well.
